    Any "Office" fans? Geez that show nails office life right smack dab on the head! Watched a mini-marathon last night. Perfect casting.

    Great show, my girlfriend and I watch it all the time.

    I was hoping they would show the "take your kid to work" episode, since we forgot to DVR it... oh well.

    I didn't get into it much in the begining, but I really enjoy the show now. Last night's mini marathon helped me catch up as there were 2 of the 3 that I hadn't seen. You are right, it absolutely nails office life.

    I was the same way. That show is funny as hell.

    I love that joke.

    Man goes to a hooker, the hooker charges five dollars, they do the deal. a few weeks later he finds out he has craps. He goes back to the hooker and says "you gave me craps" she replies "what did you think you were going to get for $5? Lobster"

    NBC was going to cancell it last year, but I guess it has come on strong.

    If anyone saw this episode from the first season, it was absolutely hilarious.

    I love The Office - the casting is perfect.

    great show, I've watched it from the beginning. Do you all know that the "intern" is the writer....I think he's also the producer too. Kind of wild, he looks like 22 - 25 years old

    Yeah, that's BJ Novak - one of the writers/producers. That's probably one reason he usually doesn't have a major storyline and as much 'airtime' as some of the others - he's working in the background....

    I love it. Its a different kind of humor that appeals directly to me. I love it.


    I also recomend, Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia on FX. Hilarious.

    I thought the "The Client" episode had a very clever part in it; when Michael suddenly shines though after all the eating and drinking when he lands the deal. Shows he actually knows a thing or two about business.

    That was a good scene because it shows why he is in his job in the first place - he's a superstar salesman who was promoted. That's the only possible explanation for his having that job in the first place. And anybody in sales knows that superstar salesmen are about the worst sales managers and administrators that there can be.

    I loved when they were reading out of the suggestion box and there is something about office romance and Dwight looks at Michael and says "Maybe this has something to do with you boning Jan." Hysterical. My favorite network comedy by far.

    Which "Office" are you guys referring to? The real version, or the slightly tamed down American copy?

    At least they did a MUCH better job than the lame attempt at "Coupling" (possibly the most hilarious & well thought out sitcom ever...).

    The original show, The Office is a British made series. It can be seen on BBC. Pretty damn funny for dry British humor.

    Cheers,
